@CupcakeLuver26 So far it sounds good. You should get a filter, you can buy some for lower water levels if that's how your tank is set up or a small in water filter works wonders. Also make sure and give them a low level of salinity. These guys are brackish so they can't be kept in freshwater. To figure out how much salt to put in it'd be good to go to a local store and talk to the sales person. In personal businesses they tend to have more knowledgeable workers. PETCO/PETSMART isn't a good idea

I just bought two of these, I know I need to have an area they can climb out of the water on and I've got that, and I know that I need to make sure they can't get out of the tank and I did that. Does anyone know if they need a filter in the water part or like an aerator? I'm new to this so I was hoping someone could help me out, I've got two crawfish in separate tanks so I know about them, but according to what I've read, care for the crabs is slightly different.

I had two of these some years ago....in my beautiful aquarium full of varied tropical fish....they ate the bloody lot despite the sign I put on the tank saying "This is NOT a sushi bar"....I just reckon they couldn't read it ;-D

Hey, do you think you could post a vid showing your entire tank setup, so I know exactly what I should do for my critters?

I don't have the tank anymore, sorry. :(

my red claw is a hider ...just like they all are an i noticed you had several other species in that tank. how did you balance the water level. allowing the crab to get to the surface and keeping fish? the second part of the question is what kind of fish will take up my res claws hiding place so i can see him once in a while?

You should not strive for other fish taking up his hiding space. Just let him hide if he feels like it. I had a little platform on top of my water filer where he could climb up. He ususally ate his food and defecated up there. Waterwise I made sure not to have any fish sensitive to a slightly higher salinity and then added a little bit more salt to the water than usual.
